I can’t believe they make you pay to register Zelda’s horse which was already boarded here until they let it get away

Bit of a comedy of errors this game

Chat, how do I confront the darkness that lurks in the heart of mankind?

I was shoveling my driveway and noticed my snot freezing in my nose on the inhale and thawing on the exhale. Pretty weird, but very effective use of phase transition to heat the air coming in and cool it going out. Pretty good design. Hope I get to design something good one day.

A lot of people out here saying the opposite!

If they want me to be miserable, I won’t

If they want me to be miserable, I won’t

I can’t ask Siri a question while driving??

Why don’t we just use dialysis on the earth to clean it?

People learn so many scientific models for things that mean nothing to them, but almost no one has a correct notion of what cleanliness is and what it means for something to be clean.

Why don’t we teach memetics in school?

I can solve climate change by accelerating the explosions of volcanoes

@justinmcelroy.bsky.social I liked your “at the height of our power” comment in the last Adventure Zone episode and I’m sorry no one reacted to it

It would be a huge QoL improvement if FindMy iPhone could tell me which floor of a building my phone was on.

I can’t believe comments are turned off on the zohran trump interview. That zoom though!

What technology has been abandoned due to too much power consumption? There are probably a hundred electric vs gasoline car equivalent mistakes laying under rocks.

Alexa and my wife had a heated exchange this morning

Bugs are sort of gundam style mechs in a way right? Has anyone done anything with this?

I think verbal narrations of manga are a latent genre of work waiting to emerge.

Thanks @griffinmcelroy.bsky.social I can’t even use my Winnie the Pooh mugs anymore

Did you know you can listen to Substack posts in the app? I assume it’s AI but it would be nice to have the option to upload a reading to save on compute.

The thing about explanations and “explanatory power” is that they aren’t “true” They are illustrative from a certain angle or maybe many angles but they never perfectly match

I wonder how many boddhisattvas Buffalo has

The mirrors in our space idea is amazing btw. Green light it. How do I buy futures? How much of the earth is purchased already.

You can use a browser plugin to differentiate Al and AI But what's the point?

They should use fines and tickets as an anti-inflammatory device. Just send them to the void. A government should not be incentivized to fund itself on the same mechanism that it punished it citizens.

They should use campaign donations as an anti-inflammatory device. Just have a number than the campaign actually gets only 90% of donations and 10% is sent to the void.

What is holding up undoing Citizens United?

You drink coffee for energy, but the caffeine gives you anxiety which causes tension and the maintenance of that tension is what’s making you so tired.

I’ll bet anyone 1,000,000 to 1 that the the dollar won’t globally collapse in 25 years. If you think it will then these odds are a no brainer. And if it does I can just ride the wave so no problem.

@defenderofbasic.bsky.social couldn’t a competent memetics engineer make a fortune in website domains? We can just write and rewrite the human mind in plain text. Seems easy. Friend.com? I could kill the word friend in 70 years

I am going to nuclear block anyone who ever takes a screenshot of one of my skeets

What job markets are oversaturated in the market and what jobs are undersaturated. A good example of oversaturated is the police. Too many jobs, too high paying, too much overtime, what are they doing with it all? 10000 government sponsored meditators would keep us safer.

Man I really need to clean out my dream fridge. Why are there so many containers in there?

I think I finally understand what visa means when he talks about making things people shaped. I’m just not that good at it weirdly? I need another person! I guess I could just imagine them

One of my main skills is that I can see things and understand them better than almost anyone I’ve ever met. Not like top ten or top twenty, but probably like top 1000 people I’ve come across? Is this useful? Honestly no. It can be pretty useful but i mostly find people do not want me to do it

I’m just not afraid of becoming sick from a cat, as a person.

Has anyone made an effort to systematically record how long babies are able to stay entertained with one simple task vs age and the task?

@defenderofbasic.bsky.social have you seen the Hank green knitting video?

What’s the opposite of double counting? Where you take multiple passes and omit some subset in all of them?

Isn’t it nuts that the illusion of the separateness of objects is just viscosity and opacity gradient thresholds? And friction!

I think there are a few things that you should be able to do forever. Walking. Reading. Weed whacking. There is no physical constraint stopping you.

Every valid horse shoe in horse shoe theory is a scissor statement waiting to happen. Like popping an Overton window where the ends of the horse shoe are two sides of a latent culture war

How many illnesses take advantage of behavioral feedback loops? Like itchy nose->sneeze pipeline. Got to be almost all with symptoms right?

Where are the grants to solve climate change? I have so many bad ideas to test but they are very expensive

Why can’t we solve climate change by making the world a little foggier? No one ever makes a foggy dystopia. I guess infinite rain is a subset of cloudy is a subset of foggy so some do Like that city in Naruto. The rain one.

Trying so hard to avoid Hades Spoilers

I like how bluesky calls it publishing

Great job holding it down this week @techtic.bsky.social ! I’m unironically hyped for PSL season and have no time for peppermint Can’t wait for more Fallout show!

@techtic.bsky.social I can’t believe you are anti dogs barking!
